    "Rookie LG Nik Embernate, who suffered significant knee injury Thurs, just left training room on crutches, then left campus. No official word."

    He tore his ACL and his MCL. :(

    Surgery date not yet set.

    He was waived/injured today. I feel really bad for the guy. He had just been moved up the depth chart and then boom done for the year. Hopefully he clears waivers and we put him on the ir.

    Tough break for sure. That's a likely scenario.

    His injury is very disappointing, I had high hopes for this kid. I can't see any team picking him up though so maybe we will just have to wait a year to see what he can do.

    Just read that Embernate cleared waivers, signed to Steelers injured reserve list.

    Awesome like I said he wasn't going to see the fieldthat much if at all this year so this could be for the best.

    Man, I take a week away from t'internet and come back to the board to see a huge list of threads with titles like: "X carted off field", "X hurt", etc. etc.

    Par for the course in training camp to a certain extent... or was Iowasteeljim not lying when he said he was the new conditioning coach.?
